by Gwyneth Pitt (Author)
This new edition is brought up to date with the major developments in the field of employment over the last three years, including a number of important new judgments and the provisions of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, the Pensions Act 1995, and the Collective Redundancies and Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 1996. In addition, two major consolidations, the Employment Rights Act 1996 and the Industrial Tribunals Act 1996, are accounted for. The book provides the reader with a portable library of the most important primary materials, including extracts from nearly 200 cases, statutes, codes of practice, EC Directives and government papers. Extracts are followed by commentary which serves to link, critically discuss and set them in context. The first nine chapters focus on individual employment law, with separate chapters on the increasingly important topics of discrimination and equal pay. Collective employment law is dealt with in Chapter 5 and in the final four chapters on trade unions and industrial action.
